Earn your indoor handicap

Start with your outdoor number.

Registering is free. Tell us your outdoor handicap and where you play — we’ll read your starting indoor number right now.

Everyone plays the Blue tees — 6,404 yds at Victoria National, 6,701 at Detroit GC North. Same setup for every player, so the field is even.

Your date of birth is for our records and to confirm you’re 18+. Gender sets the correct course rating for your tee — the same tee is rated differently for men and women.

How it works.

01

Tell us your outdoor handicap.

The Bridge translates the handicap you earned on grass into a fair indoor one. You'll see your anticipated number the moment you register.

02

Play two rounds.

Individual stroke play at your Back Nine — Round 1 at Victoria National, Round 2 at Detroit GC North. No mulligans, 8-foot gimmies, same setup for everyone.

03

Carry your number anywhere.

When your rounds post, your indoor handicap locks in. Take it into a national event, your local league, or a team qualifier — it travels with you.

What you walk away with

A start line, not a ceiling.

Your indoor handicap is what you play off — it sets your NET start line so every field is a fair fight. It is the only number you ever need to see, and nothing you buy can move it.

Honest rounds clear without a word.
